【昨日回顾】

On one view of rights, to be sure, it necessarily follows that animals have none. Some philosophers argue that rights exist only within a social contract, as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements.

诚然，根据对权利的一种看法，动物必然没有权利。有些哲学家论证说，权利只存在于社会契约中，是责任与权益交换的一部分。

【今日长难句】

Therefore, animals cannot have rights. The idea of punishing a tiger that kills somebody is absurd, for exactly the same reason, so is the idea that tigers have rights.

【结构解析】

1. 首句较为简单，不做分析。二句主干为The idea of punishing a tiger/ is /absurd, so/is/ the idea that …；that kills somebody为定语从句，修a tiger.

2. for exactly the same reason修饰so is the idea that tigers have rights; 其中so is the iedea 为倒装形式，表前后相同的情况；that tigers have rights 为idea 的同位语，解释其内容。

【词的处理】

absurd / əbˈsə:d / adj. 荒谬的，荒诞的

【参考译文】

Therefore, animals cannot have rights. The idea of punishing a tiger that kills somebody is absurd, for exactly the same reason, so is the idea that tigers have rights.

因此动物不可能有权利。惩罚吃人的老虎的想法是荒谬的。同样，认为老虎有权利也是荒谬的。

【明日长难句】

However, this is only one account, and by no means an uncontested one. It denies rights not only to animals but also to some people—for instance, to infants, the mentally incapable and future generations.
